i am finally getting the hang of school. for this week, i was not in class at all. maybe sometimes i would sneek up to class and try to catch some lessons. but i'm missing alot of things
today wasn't as tiring as yesterday. yesterday, i performed the comedy script that charmaine made about robbery. well i was certainly dog-tired. the first performance was okay but it got a bit messy in the middle but i gave my best shot in the end. the audience's response was satisfying. they laughed at the punch lines and all. i think we made a good impression but damn, my back hurts alot! i found out that the lead role is the most tiring part to play (first time!).
today more than twenty sec ones applied for drama. sadly there's only one or two guys but that's fine. those are not confirmed yet though so we still need to audition them. they might change their mind about how daunting drama can be. well i don't blame them. at first i told myself that i would be insane before i join drama. well now, yes i am insane. it does take a lot for one person to step out and act without self-consciousness, but once you had done that, the road gets more straight and more smooth than you imagined it would be. ms yee did not come today. i think she went overseas for some conference.
i seriously think drama can't go on without ms yee. for the mean time we are doing fine. but what about the long run? its not ms ng who led us to victory during the act drama retreat but ms yee. whatever she taught us for the past few years had been with us during the competion. ms ng was just there to ensure we are safe and that we can manage. i remeber before the competion i told nas (i dont think he can remeber this) how nervous i am. then he said that this play will be for ms yee. that kind of gave me the strength.
i think that time that she was away because of her blood infection, she became more close to us. not the physical distance but her presence filled us during the syf. everday we would shout "for ms yee!" and hoped and prayed that she would come back and get well soon. the bronze is not a big success, but she was the cause and effect of that success. the bronze was for her.
there is a reason why im writting this. though ms yee would never get to read this, i know the whole drama club loves her and will miss her.
